Jack the Entrepreneur

Jack is one of Ismeli's sons, and a real entrepreneur. He organized several of the islanders to fish for beche de mer, and this has generated considerable income. They now have fiberglass boats and 40 hp Yamaha outboards (the motor most prized all across the Pacific). Jack also bought a generator, and is the first on the island to have electric lights and a VCR.
